Yeah, I found the answer on the sourceforge wiki about two minutes after sending my plea for help. I did: export CVS_RSH=ssh cvs -z3 -d:ext:my_login...@fink.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/fink checkout dists and it worked. It might be nice to have some info on the fink wiki on developer access to cvs. Thanks, -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
